‘Where is Obama?’ she wrote on Facebook. ‘Where is Holder? Where is Al Sharpton? Where are Trayvon Martin’s parents? Where are all the white guy supports? So WHY is everyone MAKING it a racial issue?!? So tired of hearing it’s a racial thing. If you are a thug and worthless to society, it’s not race — You’re just a waste no matter what religion, race or sex you are!’

A Bronx teen who twice pointed his gun at cops and pulled the trigger — only to realize that he’d just emptied the weapon shooting out apartment windows — nearly hit several residents with his gunfire, police sources and witnesses said Sunday.

Whether Wehner leaves the GOP, or not, is up to him. But how much weight we give his opinions in evaluating any potential 2016 nominee is up to us. One may want to keep that in mind as Wehner begins to sing the praises of Jeb Bush, or perhaps some other establishment Republican as we move toward 2016. After all, if this was what Wehner thought of Barack Obama back when he was fighting Hillary for the Democrat nomination, just how reliable can his judgment be?

Not very, it seems to me. But this does help me understand why he’d like a Jeb Bush so much. Heck, after reading this, I’m not even certain Wehner voted for McCain/Palin in November of 2008. Behold Wehner’s great and not-so-wise praise for Barack Obama … Mr. Unity!!

Update Dec. 21, 12 p.m.: The Tarpon Springs Police Department has released more information about the officer slain Sunday morning.

Charles Kondek, 45, served more than 17 years with the agency, many of which were on the midnight shift, a department media release stated. Kondek was originally from New York where he served as a New York City Police officer for more than five years.

“Any use of the names of Eric Garner and Michael Brown, in connection with any violence or killing of police, is reprehensible and against the pursuit of justice in both cases,” the statement said. “We have stressed at every rally and march that anyone engaged in any violence is an enemy to the pursuit of justice for Eric Garner and Michael Brown… The Garner family and I have always stressed that we do not believe that all police are bad, in fact we have stressed that most police are not bad.”

Four Afghans held for over a decade at the U.S. military prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, have been sent home to Afghanistan, the Pentagon said on Saturday, the latest step in a slow-moving push by the Obama administration to close the facility.

Okay, I hate the forever “breaking exclusive” nonsense, too but … well, how can I not copy an esteemed jerk-off-a-list like Chucky C. my Johnson at Got News. Speaking of which, here is what he’s feeding those that feed at the bottom of the information food chain today. Charles has been spanking the “It’s not North Korea” monkey all week.

Mark Levin would be better … if he were free of the GOP. And a few people might argue that the GOP would be better if it were free of him.

I’ll forgive you if you don’t know who Peter Wehner is, few do beyond the Beltway. In political terms, as unfortunate as it may be to say, he’s a parasite. If you don’t believe me, simply read his professional bio at Politico. Just as you’ll find him here quite literally begging for money at Commentary, Wehner is one of an unfortunately growing number of lumps attached to politics in America that always find a way to sustain themselves either through taxpayer dollars by being employed by, or doing consulting for government. Or, when not doing that, they’re left to flat-out ask for money as Wehner does here.

“The law is clear,” Grimes told WHAS-TV in Louisville. “You can’t be on the ballot twice for two offices.” “We’ll look to the court for any guidance that is needed,” she added. “And at the end of the day, we’re not going to be bullied.”

The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Miami reports that 31-year-old Gufran Ahmed Kauser Mohammed was sentenced Wednesday. He pleaded guilty in July to one count of conspiring to provide material support to terrorists.

Mohammed is a naturalized U.S. citizen from India who relocated in 2011 to Saudi Arabia.

In a live, three-hour news conference that has become a Putin holiday tradition, the Russian leader demonstrated unwavering confidence in his domestic policies despite the catastrophic collapse in the ruble. His fierce defiance toward the United States flared throughout as he insisted the West was trying to destroy Russia to grab Siberia’s great natural resources.

If ever I begin to wonder why I usually don’t waste my time reading the superficial blather of Peter Wehner, all I need do is look in on his latest over at Commentary. Talk about there being no there there....

There is absolutely nothing of any genuine substance in his latest wad of drivel. It’s not representative of any serious thought. High school girls – and boys for that matter – put in more effort trying out for their school’s cheerleading squad and that’s mostly what Wehner is rather lamely attempting to do. It’s simply Wehner doing what he always does, imploring the GOP to lie down and be steamrolled by Obama and the Democrats.

Forget that the Republican Party’s recent rise in popularity came on the heels of last year’s government shut down … because at least some in that increasingly irrelevant party had the courage to stand up to Barack Obama.

South Bend City Council members Oliver Davis, Henry Davis Jr. and Valerie Schey on Tuesday called on Barthel to stop selling his “Breathe Easy” shirts.

“Unfortunately, the divisive message … that is being currently promoted through the sale of T-shirts bearing this message damages the goal of unity and further divides our community,” they said in a statement.

The store has defended its T-shirts in a posting on its Facebook page.
